The Ketchum keystone. [volume] (Ketchum, Idaho) 1885-1899, 1887-01-22

The interstate commerce bill, as
reported back to the senate by the
conference committee of both
houses of congress, has been adopt
ed by that body. There is a wide
difference Of opinion as to the eff
feet of the bill upon the business OF
the country, particularly on the
transportation of the northwest
No one appears to be able to state
to certainty what will be the ulti-
mate effect of the bill, but its sup
porters throughout the debate in
the senate held that, taken as a
whole, it will work beneficial re-
suits. The main object of the bill
is apparently to prevent discrimi-
nation in rates Of freight on long
and short hauls. If discrimination
is to be prevented thereby, the bill
will be a good one, but only by ex-
perience will it be known if such
will be the effect. There is q wide
variance of opinion on the subject
and among railroad men of the
largest experience there is an al
most general belief that the results
of the bill will disappoint, if not
entirely defeat, the expectations of
its supporters.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

1t is apparent that the legislature
does not intend to abolish the Of
flee of attorney general. The ex-
cuse made for continuing the Office
is that the new code greatly en-
larges the duties of the Office, and
the growth of the territory makes
it a necessity. If such is the case,
and it is determined not to abolish
the office, it is to be hoped that a
competent man may be appointed
to fill it. AS a matter of course
politics will control the matter to
great extent as, should the gov
ernor, in his wisdom see fit to ap-
point one who is a republican,
there would be no chance for con-
firmation, and it is therefore from
among the attorneys of democratic
faith that the governor must make
selection. His first appointment,
that of G.. L. Waters, has for some
reason been rejected, and it has
been currently rumored that in all
probability the name of o. B. Bat
ten of Ketchum will be presented
In very many respects such an APP
pointment will meet with APP
probation, and the gentleman has
in the council many ardent friends
who will willingly support him. AS
his cOmpetency. he will fill the Of
flee as creditably as any one likely
to be chosen, and will certainly adj
minister it in the best interests Of
the territory. In saying this much
the KEYSTONE does not recede from
the ground originally taken, that
it would be far better that the office
be abolished. as no real necessity
exists for it's continuance.

Acc Qfttell of M m n.<lAp.

The trial of G. C. Isreal, ut Ba-
ker City, for the murder of an old
man named Cohen, resulted in his
being acquitted. The trial lasted
for several days and went to the
jury on Saturday last, a verdict be-
ing reached at midnight. one of the
jurors holding out until that time
against verdict of not guilty. Is
real is prominent lawyer Of Baker
county and the chairman Of the re-
publican central committee. His VIC
tim, Cohen, was highly esteemed
citizen, and the manner of his
death great shock to his friends.
A man named Thorndyke was in
dictcd with Isrea! as an accessory,
but the acquittal of the principal
will probably lead to a dismissal
of his case.
